Everyone knows how important it is to read with children. But what can you do to
continue your child's learning experience and enjoyment of a story after you finish reading?
In her delightful new book Peggy Kaye shows parents and teachers how to engage young children
in amusing yet slyly educational games based on twenty-eight classic children's books, half
of them picture books such as Harold and the Purple Crayon and Blueberries for Sal
and half chapter books, for instance, Winnie-the-Pooh and Stuart Little

"Peggy Kaye is the teacher everyone wishes they had, the teacher from heaven. Her
special genius is for turning something you're doing already -- in this new book, reading
aloud to your children -- into an act of education. And for Peggy Kaye, an act of education
is an act of imagination. She stretches the creative muscles. Her games will inspire your kids,
and maybe they'll inspire you, too.&quotLouis Menand, Pulitzer Prize winning author of The Metaphysical Club
